Association between clinical presentations before myocardial infarction and coronary mortality: a prospective population-based study using linked electronic records. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Ischaemia in different arterial territories before acute myocardial infarction (AMI) may influence post-AMI outcomes. No studies have evaluated prospectively collected information on ischaemia and its effect on short- and long-term coronary ...

Neutrophils incite and macrophages avert electrical storm after myocardial infarction [PDF]
Sudden cardiac death, arising from abnormal electrical conduction, occurs frequently in patients with coronary heart disease. Myocardial ischemia simultaneously induces arrhythmia and massive myocardial leukocyte changes.

Cardiac troponins in intensive care [PDF]
The cardiac troponins are integral components of the myofibrillary apparatus and they regulate muscle contraction. The measurement of cardiac troponins has replaced other biomarkers for the specific detection of myocardial necrosis and for the diagnosis ...

Particularities of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction in women
Despite the fact that women have lower incidence of non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) compared with men, they have a higher mortality, attributed to the impact of the age, higher burden of comorbidities, atypical symptoms and possible differences in the diagnosis and treatment of NSTEMI.

Inpatient coronary angiography and revascularisation following non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome in patients with renal impairment: a cohort study using the Myocardial Ischaemia National Audit Project. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: International guidelines support an early invasive management strategy (including early coronary angiography and revascularisation) for non-ST-elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) in patients with renal impairment.

A Feature Selection for Detection of Non ST Elevation Myocardial Infarction
A feature selection (FS) process of biomarkers for detecting Acute Myocardial Infarction (AMI) for Non ST Elevation patients (NSTEMI) is presented. FS has been applied by a retrospective analysis of biomarkers — high sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT), heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (H-FABP), creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), myoglobin, GPBB ...
